How does it?  Does his wrestling ability suddenly cease to exist?  No

 

He murdered his wife and child. I couldn't care less about his "talent" he is now and should always be remembered as a murderer

What you could or couldn't care about doesn't change a thing.  He was a very good wrestler - that is a fact that will always exist.  Should he be remembered as a murderer?  Of course, 100% - his ability doesn't negate that at all, but by the same token his murder of his family in no way diminishes his wrestling ability.  The two are not mutually exclusive.

Yeah I like to remember Chris for his epic matches inside the squared circle, of course he is a murderer and he will forever I am sure rot in hell for what he did but I want to remember the matches he gave me and the memories for example this...

Looks like "Phillip Brooks" will be on TV next week.  Interesting that he's dropped the CM Punk name.  Guess that's more evidence that he's done with wrestling.  

 

I also think that his relationship will AJ will eventually end since they are hardly seeing each other anymore.  Brooks now has the chance to mingle and have a social life while AJ is on the road working.

...well, the fans at Lockdown definitely proved me wrong; the "creepy bastard" chants made it across the pond! :laugh:

While on the subject of Mr. Anderson, I found out just now that he's coming to my city on May 4th; the local promotion (Plymouth Wrestling Alliance) is holding its 5th anniversary show, and Anderson and Gunner are gonna be taking part. Unusually, they've also got Jon St. John, the voice of Duke Nukem (it's a crossover with the local comic/sci-fi convention that they're holding on the same day). Methinks I might be going...

TNA Lockdown tonight, A.K.A. a gimmick PPV done right; every single match is a cage match. Anyone else gonna be watching?

 

Ethan Carter III vs. TBA - It's an open challenge now that Kurt Angle's "injured". Specifically limited to the current roster, so no surprises in store here, unfortunately.

Manik vs. Tigre Uno - Now this should be a good'un. Manik (TJ Perkins) trained in lucha libre, so it's effectively two luchadores going at it; something we don't see too often in the big companies nowadays.

Mr. Anderson vs. Samuel Shaw - I have a feeling the "creepy bastard" chants Samuel Shaw's had in the UK won't carry back over to the US. Wouldn't mind the Miami crowd proving me wrong though, or failing that, have Mr. Anderson announce Shaw as "Crrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeepyyyyyyyyyy...... Barrrrrrrrrrstard!!!!!!" again.

The Great Muta, Sanada and Nakanoue (Wrestle-1) vs. Bad Influence (Christopher Daniels and Kazarian) and Chris Sabin (TNA) Six-man interpromotional tag team match - Can't really see Keiji Mutoh coming to America just to job to TNA's midcarders (Bad Influence still deserve better though).

Gunner vs. James Storm - Last Man Standing match - Insult the armed forces = definitely losing. I imagine that's an unwritten rule in wrestling creative teams in 'murica, so that's the sole basis of my prediction here.

Madison Rayne © vs. Gail Kim (with Lei'D Tapa) for the TNA Knockouts Championship - Assist from Lei'D.

Team MVP (MVP, The Wolves (Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards) and Jeff Hardy) vs. Team Dixie (Bobby Roode, The BroMans (Robbie E and Jessie Godderz) and Austin Aries) - Eight-man Lethal Lockdown match - Winner takes complete control of TNA; if Team Dixie wins, Bobby Roode gets 10% of TNA - Roughly 5,000 unsold Hulk Hogan t-shirts are on the line!
Magnus © vs. Samoa Joe for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship - can only win by submission or knockout - Essentially the outcome is either Joe makes Magnus tap or Magnus knocks out Joe with the help of Rockstar Spud and EC3. Now which one's more believable...?

 

4/7.

EC3 ended up not having a match and just got squashed by Bobby Lashley.

 

Pretty good PPV overall. Manik/Tigre Uno didn't disappoint, and possibly stole the show (it's a toss-up between them and Gunner/Storm). The iffy bits:

The finish to Anderson/Shaw. Maffew can sum it up better than I can...

I would love it if someone asks a question like "It's fitting your on a zombie show because your dead to me!" :rofl:

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      By +Edouard · Posted

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
